I would like to be cut
I never thought that the day would come when I would pray to be laid off, but now I think that it wouldn't be bad at all if it happened to me. Anyone else? I'm exhausted. I am literally drained and depressed. I don't believe there are many worse... — read more

Acosta has gone off the rails
I know Acosta was never the perfect workplace, but it was much, much better than it is now. Somewhere in the last decade or so things started to take a turn for the worse and it never stopped. No wonder so many people are leaving. There's no reason... — read more

Employees are financing Acosta's business
with the use of their personal automobiles. If Acosta reimbursed the actual cost that employees incurred for using their personal automobile they would be done, kaput, out of business.

Anyone else going to decline the vaccine at risk of losing your job?
Very Very Very unfair

Acosta, Walmart, Sam's Club
Are these the only stores that Acosta is, doing whatever it is that they do, at now?
Acosta turnovers
Acosta is a bad company to work for. They have more turnovers than pillsbury made in 20 years.
Acosta needs too:
"Get the right people on the bus, the wrong people off the bus, then get everyone in the right seat." There is no one at acosta that can recognize that.
Acosta is a great place to work.
They pay good and allow flexible hours. I have been with them 15 years and I really like working at Acosta.
